Today is our anniversary. Usually we go camping or take a little trip, but a picnic in the park is almost as fun. So I threw together my usual potato salad, made a muffaletta-style sandwich, and added a few totally random things on the side (edamame, string cheese, and beef jerky).
We also opened a bottle of champagne we've had in the fridge forever, waiting for a special occasion. Since neither of us have been drinking much lately, we were both drunk before the meal was over, and had to lie down for a nap. And we woke up after sunset, sore and chilly, and staggered our way home for more napping.
Not quite the romantic day I had in mind, but hey-- we're not newlyweds. Not by a long shot: this is how many years we've been married:
Happy 8th Anniversary and many more to come!

MMMmmmmm- edamame, tater salad AND jerky. The only way that combo could be better is if you also had some random rollmops handy.
Congratulations and best wishes on your Eighth. I really liked the picture of you.
